Sometimes you see a line so stupid...

That you just can't help but spread it around for everyone to mock. Here goes:

Mr. DeLay, the Texas Republican who had been the House majority leader, crowed that he had been "found innocent." But many of Mr. DeLay's actions remain legal only because lawmakers have chosen not to criminalize them.

It's from a NYT editorial. But it's not really an editorial. It's an editorial only because it's an opinion piece written by the senior editorial staff or publisher of the New York Times.
